Wakefield's oldest house, available for small, intimate functions in a unique setting.
Located on the shores of beautiful Lake Quannapowitt in Wakefield, MA, the Colonel James Hartshorne House was built in 1681 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The house has had a long and interesting history, and is owned by the Town of Wakefield, but managed by the Colonel James Hartshorne House Association and a Board of Directors. Wakefield's oldest home has been the setting of many happy events over the years, and is available for rental for weddings, showers, reunions, meetings, and other small gatherings. These rentals are the source of income for the preservation of the house and are very important to its maintenance.
